'A release of considerable historical importance.' - Ron Watson, Voice\r
\r

'A master class in how great drumming is as much about timbre as rhythm...it is an astonishing sense of time that allows Roach and Waldron to play and listen at once. They play subtly out of time, creating non linear possibilities; total flow in two directions. This release is a manifesto for the unassailable - and unsuperseded - virtues of swing.' - Ben Watson, Jazziz\r
\r

'Roach's timbral palette is so deft his contributions are practically orchestral. Having avoided the trap of self-emulation, these two veterans can now stretch out and have fun.' - Hi-Fi News & Record Review
